Common treatment methods for cancer include surgery, systemic chemotherapy, radiotherapy, molecular targeted therapy, and immunotherapy.
In addition, there is also Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) treatment, which involves the integration of Chinese and Western medicine to provide standardized diagnosis and treatment for solid tumors, offering guidance and support for patients in advanced stages of cancer.
What are the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine in treating tumors and nourishing the body?
1. Post-surgery patients: Due to surgical trauma, patients often experience deficiency of Qi and blood, manifested as fatigue, spontaneous sweating, night sweating, poor appetite, abdominal distension, insomnia, and vivid dreaming. The use of Chinese herbal medicine can supplement Qi and nourish blood, reduce postoperative complications, and promote faster recovery.
2. By using Chinese herbal medicine to tonify the body and expel pathogenic factors, it can help consolidate the therapeutic effects and reduce tumor recurrence and metastasis.
3. Taking Chinese herbal medicine during radiation and chemotherapy can alleviate side effects such as nausea, vomiting, constipation, leukopenia, anemia, insomnia, pain, dry mouth, and thirst caused by these treatments.
4. Patients in advanced stages or with lesions unsuitable for surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy: Taking Chinese herbal medicine can help control tumor growth, alleviate symptoms, improve quality of life, and extend survival time.
Our chief physician in the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine at our hospital specializes in postoperative consolidation treatment and prevention of recurrence and metastasis in common tumors. In late-stage tumor cases during radiation and chemotherapy, we have accumulated rich clinical experience in using Chinese herbal medicine to enhance treatment effects, reduce toxicity and side effects of radiation and chemotherapy, and improve the quality of life for patients. We employ an integrated approach combining Chinese and Western medicine to provide standardized diagnosis and treatment for solid tumors such as lung cancer, liver cancer, gastrointestinal cancer, and breast cancer. Furthermore, we have accumulated extensive experience in managing common symptoms in cancer patients and alleviating the side effects of radiation and chemotherapy.
